Least visited country - Tuvalu

The least visited country in the world

Most people like travelling, within one's own country or a country of their dreams. But, not everyone has the resources to do so; or maybe they don't have the time for it. Still, many of us want to travel to a different country. If asked which one, most of us would have the answer instantly ready, because we know which country we like, which country we want to visit. A famous place; that gets a lot of tourists every year. Maybe that place is beautiful to us just because its famous. 

There are places that are utterly beautiful, but not famous for some reasons; or for no reasons at all. In fact, these lesser known places outnumber the famous ones. Most of these are way more beautiful than those crowded with tourists. "Underrated" would be the best word to use. Well, that's enough of talking. Let's get back to the real question, the one that this page is all about.
